Oh my golly gosh!
Looking forward to this game. I missed other games betwen the teams, but I ope to catch this one.

Mervue Utd. v. UCD AFC 1984, was an important defence of the FAI Cup win of 1984.

They have won three league games in a row.

Match preview online now. mervue have beaten Kildare, Monaghan and Longford, but no-one else, so they seem like a mid-table team. Shouldn't fear them anyway.

I know we're going to win but I still can't bet on us even at the extraordinarily tasty price of 1.66.

I bet on us to beat Wexford. I blame that for us losing. The last time I bet on us was part of a nine-game accumulator including us v Monaghan in the Cup; we drew, and every other game came off. Never bet on us!

Super win - thanks for the twittering - nerve wracking way to watch a game - when no twitters happen for a few mins you never know if it because you lost or broke the phone or because nothing happened

And I thought I was doing too many updates!

Any own goal and a massive deflection isn't the best way to win, but at least we've learnt a lesson while not dropping any points.

Longford are really struggling at the moment; should be able to get a win next week.
